![]() ![]() See highly detailed, easy-to-interpret live scanning sonar images of structure, bait and fish swimming below and around your boat in real time, even when your boat is stationary.As you stretch and constrict your screen sideways (range) and up and down (depth) you change the scale and detail LiveScope can display.We Took Scanning Sonar and Made It Panoptix™ So if you’re hunting bigger crappie and not wanting to cull through a lot of little ones, you can learn what they look like by keeping your range in close and keeping it consistent. Range understanding is critical to distinguishing not only species of fish but size of same species of fish. Then choose the color palette that you can best see everything with on that body of water. To set it, go to your LiveScope screen and choose Menu > Sonar Setup > Appearance > Color Scheme. ![]() Soukup was a big fan of Black Emerald when he was here fishing the Crappie Masters tournament on Kentucky Lake looking for crappie in stake beds and brush piles that were covered in shad fry. Sometimes on a cloudy day, one palette draws a better picture than another for different people. Some folks see amber better while some see blue better. It’s this way on Marine Electronics for sure. You can click the + or – to increase and decrease your Gain.Įveryone sees a little differently. To set it go to your LiveScope Screen and down at the bottom towards the right you’ll see Gain. This is truly a user preference and you will find at times you will turn it up and other times you’ll turn it down as you change locations and depth. Gain ( 3 mins, 5 secs)Īfter you get Noise Reject, TVG and Color Gain adjusted, then you can start tweaking your Gain up and down to see how much clutter you like cleared or showing to make sure you see the cover, the fish and your lure if necessary to make the most precise presentations to the fish. It defaults around 50 and Soukup often runs his up to 83 or 84 to really make those returns stand out on the screen. To set it, go to your LiveScope Screen and choose Menu > Sonar Setup > Appearance > Color Gain. Soukup talks about his favorite settings in the video above, but each person needs to find their happy medium for where they fish. So this is a setting you can turn way up if you’re having a hard time seeing fish or your lure at a distance. Instead of pumping up the gain and contrast of the whole screen, color gain just pumps up the fish, brush, your lure and other objects in the water. Go to your Livescope Screen and choose Menu > Sonar Setup > TVG and choose OFF.Ĭolor Gain is a way to set the intensity of just the objects that Livescope will detect. Deeper than that and you can start with low. ![]() When you’re in water less than 15 feet deep, you’ll want to set TVG to off as it will filter too much out on the top part of the water column and you could miss some fish up there. This is filter information top to bottom to let you see further into the water. To set it go to your LiveScope screen and choose Menu > Sonar Setup > Noise Reject and choose High. But the Noise Reject setting at high will eliminated a lot of unwanted clutter. You will want a little clutter to filter through because you want to be able to see your line and small jigs on the screen and you need some of the information to pass through. When you have it turned off you’ll see a lot of clutter on the screen. Noise reject helps filter the information that is coming into your unit from your LiveScope processor and transducer. ![]()
